What in the world is a zeta crown?

Being a Zeta from Georgia, I don't appreciate you talking bad about my sorority and not knowing anything about us. I think lurkinggirl must have been a Zeta reject and is jealous of Jenna's success. Thank you John for setting them straight. I'm proud of Jenna for showing off her Zeta pride. Go Jenna! I'll be supporting you.

Luckily my college didn't have any sororities or fraternities, except for the honor fraternity that I was inducted into based on grades. The closest I ever got to Greek Life in college was watching Revenge of the Nerds and Animal House with groups of friends. We did have fake Greek parties though, namely Tappa Kegga Dey.

When I was in law school at a large university I got to see some of the darker sides of fraternities and sororities, as one student died from alcohol poisoning while I was there, another got severe frostbite from being duct taped naked to a tree in the late fall, and I don't know how many sorority sisters we had in our free law clinic after one football weekend trying to get advice on how to deal with their criminal charges stemming from an out of control party. They were crying and hysterical, and not to say that a drinking party wouldn't have happened but for their sorority, but many of the sisters ended up leaving the sorority in order to avoid suspension from school. Another fraternity was on very public probation for entering a racist float in the homecoming parade.

My exposure to frats and sororities convinced me that my college had definitely taken the right approach. I know people who have had good experiences with them, but the things they've told me didn't sound that enticing to me. Different strokes for different folks, but bringing a sorority crown as your only luxury item to a reality tv show in which other people vote the winner doesn't sound like the shrewdest move.

Gaangel5, I hardly think LG is jealous of Jenna's success, and there's no reason to refer to her as a "Zeta reject". Try some decaf...

tappa kegga day!

I was wondering how long it would be before the first don't-pick-on-Jenna post showed up... can Jennasmom be far behind?
